Why YOU Need to Invest In the Perfect Nursing Bra?

I know what you’re thinking… “Why would I spend money on something for myself when I could use that money to spoil my baby?”

Let us tell you why!

At Momanda, we believe that every woman deserves to feel confident and beautiful, while also feeling capable of feeding her baby in the way that she wants to.

By investing in a nursing bra that checks all of those boxes, you will find yourself feeling more empowered than ever!

5 Reasons You Need to Invest in the Perfect Nursing Bra:

Okay, okay… we got a little excited there! Let’s talk about 5 specific reasons that you NEED to invest in the perfect nursing bra:

1. It will make breastfeeding easier. 

That’s the point of the nursing bra, so if you don’t accomplish that- well, it’s all in vain! 

Having a great nursing bra means that breastfeeding will be accessible and comfortable for you. Without it, you will find yourself having to yank, stretch, pull, and even tear your bra just to feed your child. A cheap bra just isn’t worth it!

2. It will remind you that it is okay to spend money on yourself.

During this exciting time, you surely want nothing more than to spoil your little ones with anything they could possibly need.

Where, however, does that leave you?

Here is your (much needed) reminder that it is OKAY to spend money on yourself. After all, if you don’t, who will?

Investing in a great nursing bra is by no means selfish… it is a tool that you will utilize constantly to ensure that you are nourishing your child to the best of your responsibility.

3. You DESERVE to feel SEXY and CONFIDENT!

Say it louder! You deserve to feel sexy and confident. 

The introduction into motherhood does NOT mean you need to retire your confidence. Even if no one else sees your beautifully fashioned bras, knowing that you have invested in an undergarment for yourself will act as a quiet reminder of your self-worth throughout the day.

4. Confidence in breastfeeding will make it possible to do it for longer.

When you have a nursing bra that does its job well, it boosts your confidence. Being able to breastfeed without pain, discomfort, or insecurity will help you to look forward to the experience instead of dreading it. If you enjoy it, you will feel more motivated to continue to do it for longer!

5. Proper support can prevent mastitis and engorgement pain.

When your bra is such a barrier to a positive breastfeeding experience that it causes you to procrastinate breastfeeding, you know there is a problem. Procrastinating milk expression can lead to engorgement, clogged milk ducts, and even mastitis. 

What to look for in the Perfect Nursing Bra:

Not that you know WHY you need to invest in the perfect nursing bra, we need to teach you HOW. 

Here are the most important things to look for in a nursing bra, along with our favorite nursing bra options that exemplify each characteristic!

Select a bra that falls within your budget.

Nursing bras can range from $10, up to $200+. Determine how much money you would like to spend on one bra, and explore your options within that range. Thankfully, companies like Momanda have made it a priority to provide supportive, high-quality bras for a manageable price!

This Wireless Racerback Nursing Bra is a total favorite. Its affordable cost doesn’t compromise its features. 

Opt for a soft fabric that is comfortable for you

Is there anything worse than finding yourself stuck in a piece of clothing (especially a bra) that is itchy, uncomfortable, and irritating? We can’t imagine so!

The Best Lace Nursing Bra, also known as Momanda’s “#1 Bra”, features ultra-soft lace fabrics. Made of 92% polyamide and 8% spandex, this bra leads the pack in both beauty and comfort.

Find a bra that provides the desired amount of support.

Contrary to popular opinion, more underwire does not always equal more support! Depending on when you are wanting to wear the bra, you can determine how much support is required. 

Our Full Coverage Padded Nursing Bra has adapted strap options that provide wider straps for larger cup sizes. This subtle detail relieves back pain, and leaves women feeling confident that their bra will do its job!

Ensure the bra has easy breastfeeding accessibility.

The point of a nursing bra is to make it easier for your baby to nurse, no matter where you are! Breastfeeding accessibility occurs through either drop-down clips or a pull-down neckline. Consider which option will be most convenient for you!

Our stylish Double Strap Nursing Bralette features easy-to-use, drop-down clips that make one-handed accessing a breeze!

Nursing Bra Q&A

The world of nursing bras can be daunting at first- leaving moms with a lot of questions! Let’s go over the most common questions now, to make sure you feel confident to go and invest in the perfect nursing bra for you!

A: Even though you won’t need to use the accessibility clips during pregnancy, your changing body (especially in the third trimester) could benefit from the soft, stretchy material featured in many nursing bras.

While the answer to this is different for everyone, the ultimate answer is to start buying and wearing nursing bras when you feel like your body would benefit from the extra comfort! There is no reason to put on the restrictive, uncomfortable underwire that regular bras are notorious for!

Q: How many nursing bras will I need?

A: Well, that answer depends on how often you do your laundry! You want enough bras so that you can continuously rotate through them. If you are exclusively breastfeeding and/or pumping, you won’t wear much other than nursing bras, meaning you will want 5-7 to begin with.

Q:What is the most common mistake when it comes to women ordering nursing bras?

A: Women are known for settling for less. DO NOT do this! You are not doing yourself (or anyone else) and favors, and you will surely pay the price later in your breastfeeding journey.

Mama, you are worth the time and effort that it will take to find the perfect nursing bra for you. What worked great for your own mom, your friend, or your neighbor, will not necessarily work for you. Finding a comfortable fit that also helps you to feel confident will serve you for months to come!

You’ve got this mama, happy shopping!
